Weekend update

I got quite a lot down on Barbara Ana's 'Stitch or Die'. Hopefully It won't be too long before it is finished. This is a fun stitch as it is bright and cheerful.

This is what I have done so far on Castles in the Air, the mystery SAL by Papillon Creation. It's starting to move along nicely. I am making sure I go slow and concise to get the counting bang on and first time due to the intricacy of the speciality stitches.

I haven't really worked on it over the weekend as I prefer to stitch this one with no Him Indoors or the kids around lol. Less likely to be mistakes that way!

  13. What wonderful and contrasting projects you are working on. The "Stitch or Die" is really fun and I can see that it is one that stitches fast. And the "Castles in the Air", what a beautiful and challenging piece. I can see why you would want to take your time - the colors are eye catching and soothing to the soul. I, like you, enjoy both kinds of projects: one that is fun & fast and the other that posses a challenge, adding an element of accomplishment when finished! Thank you for sharing both. I enjoy seeing your work!
